FHM Engage Launches New Tool: Health Market Analyzer

FHM Engage is excited to announce the launch of the Health Market Analyzer, a new tool that brings together two tools that were previously developed under SHOPS Plus by Avenir Health: Private Sector Counts and FP Market Analyzer.

The new tool showcases DHS data on where women go for family planning across 50 countries.    

The “Compare Across Countries” module allows you to compare the source mix across countries – you can explore how the source mix varies by different demographic segments, and users of different modern family planning methods.  This module also allows you to compare the method mix of users going to the public versus private sector.  You can explore how method mix within each sector varies across different demographic segments.

Just interested in one country?  The “Single Country Landscape” module allows you to take a deep dive into contraceptive use by sector and method for any selected country.  This module provides an overview of the national picture of use by method and sector, and allows you to explore differences in sector use and non-use of family planning across demographic segments and geographic regions.

A third family planning module will be released later this year that allows you to explore future scenarios, building on the FP Market Analyzer tool.  This module will let you see the implications of future changes to what methods women use, or where they go for their contraception. 

Also check back soon for the launch of the Child Health section of the tool, which will include both the Compare Across Countries and Single Country Landscape modules, with a focus on source of care for sick children and childhood vaccination.
